So Trumps flip flopping on Ukraine funding already

[j-mac]

One day? He's been president for a 1.5 months.

Right off the bat you are wrong....Jan 20 to Feb 20 is how long again? Do you not know what a month is?

Plus the months prior to him taking office, after stating he could end the war BEFORE taking office. Looking like 4 months now.

So, you're not smart enough to separate rhetoric, from actual plan? Got it....

No, I didn't vote for Biden. I don't vote for anyone who leans left.

Yeah, I wouldn't admit it either....

BTW, this is about Trump going to continue to fund Ukraine. Are you OK with him doing that?

No. I think at this point Ukraine is playing us like a scammer....Cut him off.

I suspect that you are.

That's what you get when you try to think...In fact, I'm thinking most of your problems start when your feet hit the floor in the morning...

If not, you'll find some way of justifying it.

What's the matter there toddler? getting mad when people don't see things your way? Too bad.

Those minerals are some free market stuff, that Trump shouldn't be involved in.

What are the minerals, anyways? Are they really rare? Or is that just another lie Trumps making?

Why shouldn’t govts get in the market?

The big one is lithium

So you are just making things up? Geez he could live another twenty years…you are willing to let people die for 20 more years just to get trump? Sad

Putin has no succession plan so the disruption of his death is likely Ukraine’s best option.

Trump is endorsing Putin’s demands, ignoring Ukraine, and asking for nothing in return. The Russians aren’t agreeing to anything. So this will fall apart, as most of these Trump shows tend to.

Not true. Trump did not meet with Putin yet. All options are still on the table.

Yes, he signaled his intention to betray Ukraine consistently. He endorsed the Russian invasion. He used his dominance of the lickspittle GOP to delay aid to Ukraine for nearly a year. You “never heard him promising anything”. A typical Trumpster lie.
But now Trump is sending mixed messages.
This blackmail scheme has collapsed. (Trump doesn’t seem to have learned from the last time he tried to blackmail Ukraine)

Trump ending USAID aid to Ukraine is not about weapons. Zelensky's claim that he only got 58% of Biden's promised military aid is more telling. Where did that 42% go? Musk and his DOGE team are trying to find out.

No, Zelenskyy didn’t reveal Ukraine money laundering plot

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said his country’s military has received only a portion of the more than $175 bi

3. Trump may want the EU to be the "peacekeepers" in Ukraine, and have the EU admit Ukraine.
You made that up. Trump is attacking NATO, and he is not talking to the EU.
Trying to blackmail an ally in order to try and steal them didn’t work.

Trump said there will be no US troops in Ukraine. EU countries would be the ones to put "peacekeepers" in Ukraine if/when a ceasefire happens. Trump is not attacking NATO, he wants NATO deadbeats to pay the **** up, maybe even to 5% instead of 2% of GDP, as JD Vance said.

It's the same thing that happened with Trump and Afghanistan. Back then Trump said he was going to end the war. Lindsey Graham said no your not.

Trump caved.

Same thing happened here.

Republicans disagree with Trump on Putin, won’t critique Ukraine war strategy

Trump caved again.

Starting wars with China and India is a losing proposition.

What war? They just need to stop buying Russian oil, duh.

 

[j-mac]

Our only concern should be in keeping aukraine funded and helping them inflict defeat on Putin.

Why? you getting a percentage?

The geopolitical implications of such a cter wold be a huge boon to the a United States and our influence in the world.

LOL....our influence? Or our gullibility?

The mineral threat is a typical hare brained Trump blackmail stunt.

Why? China's been doing it for more than a decade?

What war? They just need to stop buying Russian oil, duh.

And they aren't about to. Then what? They never stopped buying oil from Iran.

Bugger off. I have no interest in your dishonesty.

What's dishonest? He's only been President for 30 days....That's a fact....

 

[pknopp]

What's dishonest? He's only been President for 30 days....That's a fact....

And it's a fact he said he would have the war settled even before taking office.

 

[j-mac]

He said it was going to be done by now. Trump supporters praised him when he said he'd get it done before taking office. Said it would be easy. That it would only take a few phone calls.

Well, apparently Trump was lying. Not that his supporters care if he lies or not.

Good GAWD you're an idiot....So, on top of that you can't discern between a figure of speech, and real action....

Is this an act, or are you really that stupid?

F Lindsery Graham and Thune. And Trump too, if he keeps funding Ukraine.

 

[j-mac]

Odd, I've noted that for years.

Sure you did.... So, why not give some support for your accusation that Trump is benefitting his own businesses right now, instead of being a lying peckerhead...

I'm starting to think Russia's military isn't what they make it out to be. Ukraine is about the size of Texas. How TF did Russia not win this war in a matter of weeks?

 

[TimFitz]

Because the United States which he is head of state of, has spent billions in Ukraine and he wants the people he represents to get a chance to get some of that back.

Nations enter into trade deals all the time, in fact govts hava a huge role in that

Oh the Trump adulation!

Never mind that it makes very little sense.

Your assumption (aand Trump’s) is that the government of Ukraine owns these resources, or can steal them from their actual owner.

Why would Ukraine agree to something they may not control?

Why isn’t Trump doing his homework (never mind)?

This is a gimmick. A tawdry blackmail scheme.

The last time Trump tried to blackmail Zelinsky it blew up in his face.

So, the whole scheme is ridiculoius.

So ridiculous that the only people who actually buy this BS are Trump’s know nothing disciples.

The idiotic scheme has already collapsed.

Mainly because no one remotely involved in the Tru,p “a peacemaker” show trust Trump to keep any commitment he may say he agrees to.
